Study Hall
People have different needs for focus and concentration. This large setting serves individuals who crave an “alone together” experience where they can engage in deep, productive work while staying connected to their broader organization.
Strategies Behind this Setting
For Wellbeing
Individuals can find relief from sensory signals that can feel overwhelming in other environments. The choice of solitary workspaces promotes a focused mindset.
For Connection
Individuals who utilize this space are attracted to its communal atmosphere. Though work is performed independently, the space satisfies the inherent human desire for social connection.
For Change
By giving people control over their environment, this setting helps them adapt to change. The ability to customize lighting, posture, and work tools accommodates a diverse range of user preferences.
Respite Space
These semi-private individual settings are designed to provide in-the-moment relief by encouraging quiet, restoring focus, and enhancing personal wellbeing.
Strategies Behind this Setting
For Wellbeing
Embracing how people process sensory signals differently, this individual setting invites people to withdraw into a calming space and momentarily escape the stresses of work.
For Connection
Taking time to pause, reflect, and not react emotionally helps people to filter out the “noise” of work. This setting intentionally lacks technology to encourage a restful experience for the mind as well as the body.
For Change
Giving people control over their environment helps them adapt to change. People who use this setting can make small adjustments to the lighting, curtains, and more to enhance their individual comfort.
